Hi all from GDLA.

Thanks for the opportunity to as a question. It's regarding the Geotransform Tutorial(https://gdal.org/tutorials/geotransforms_tut.html). Tried to get info in the web but since this seems a tricky one, my searches failed.

The tutorial only deals with the ideal case of 'North up' images, for which GT(2) and GT(4) are zero. However, my images are 'East up' and potentially 'any direction up' (underwater photomosaic surveys by ROV). The rotation works with '90' for GT(2, 4). But the scaling seems completely ignored. Any hint? If it would be easy, I assume your tutorial would give an example for how to deal with "non-N-up' images, but ...

My pics are 1920x1080, with pixel resolution of 0.0015 (yes, 0.15cm per pixel, we're flying just 3m above the bottom).

In case I rotate the images prior to geotransform (in Photoshop), geotransform works perfect, with GT(2, 4) = 0. Scaling spot on. I can live with that for our last survey but I'm also looking for a solution in case our survey heading cannot be 0, 90, 180, or 270, but has to be something like 35° (due to bottom currents etc.).

Best regards, any hint qappreciated,
Gerhard
